Have you changes your tyres from Bridgestone, if so what for?

I have heard that Pirelli GTS will stop the wobbly bars. But what are the GTS known as now?

I have heard from loads of owners that have the same problem. It only happens under certain conditions. Like coasting down from 60 with your hands off the bars. But I can now feel it going into corners, its only a slight pulsing but it does put you off.

Interesting - I haven't come across this yet. How worn are your tyres? Have you checked headrace and wheel bearings and wheel alignment?

I had it all checked out when I had it werviced. If the tyre was on the zx6r I'd say it had about 2000 more miles on it. will have to sort it before the road trip next month.

Did some investigating and couldn't make head nor tail of it, so from what I have read I have decided to go for Continental Road Attacks. Should be fitted on friday I'll let you know the results.
